[@scoopdedoop2673]

cracking a beer at 9am just to watch this awesome vid

[@cbr600rrturbo]

dam!

[@Iamjasonallen]

Thanks Chris!

[@cbr600rrturbo]

lol luv the vid

[@budgetsurvival782]

my 8

[@skartimus]

Will you are so much better on camera than before, you seem way more comfortable :) Good to see your personality come out more.

[@Shooter11B]

Another great vid Chris and Will. So glad you took the plunge on the Brush Demon. Such a great blade. One more I would recommend to test if you can find one is the BK-20 Bundok Bowie. That would be the BK-9's bigger, badder brother. Awesome potential there. I have one I have not yet had the chance to beat up, but it looks impressive.

[@edgybob1]

Wow, great choppers. I would love to have Para Bellum. One day maybe.

[@msilverhammer]

Glad to see that Will has shown up finally! I would have liked to hear his opinion on the blades that were showcased in the previous videos.

[@preparedmind101]

+Msilverhammer That's easy. Not his thing.

[@msilverhammer]

C'mon Will get with the program! LOL We missed you, and Chris will now need to be rebuilt bionically!

[@abeazar]

Chris Thanks for wearing out your arm showing us what these blades can do...Abe Azar

[@tommystoby1059]

the first video i saw was when u killed the rambo knife that video was so funny a great video. now i watch every video u do on P101.

[@kaiyote4717]

Id love to see more of the brush demon. Im thinking about snagging one soon

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Bring us the BATONORAMA !!!

[@alexwbanks70]

That Zombie Tools Parabellum is nice! Zombie tools is just a little pricey for me right now. Maybe next year.

[@CommonCentsOutdoorsman]

Hi, my name is Paul... and I'm a Chopaholic.

[@srvctek1]

love the bk9

[@phillo1818]

lol love the out take. BTW: Bowie is pronounced Bowie, not Bowie, hope that finally clarifies the pronunciation debate.

[@preparedmind101]

+Phill O I wonder how many people didn't see it?🙄

[@brianmccann666]

... Boo Ee !!! ... Bow Ee !!! Its all personal taste. Say it how you prefer. Great blade designs...

[@47kcr]

Hey Chris, you got to check out the guys at Dutch bush craft knives! They are funny and informative like Tack and Jackalope.

[@boggledegop]

Hey Chris, just wondering if you were still thinking about doing a more in depth review of the Outdoor Edge Brush Demon? I'm looking to purchase a machete and I like the look of that one, but want to make sure it will hold up to camping abuse.

[@scottwiggins3637]

Sup Will, long time no see my friend. GJ guys! Chris, would love to see you make a vid about the Buck Hoodlum.

[@brianmccann666]

Great video Chris :) Btw, since you have designed several great knives already, i had a thought... Maybe you should sit down with someone and design a tomahawk or five ;) Qualities you like in a Tomahawk. The head/blade design will of course vary the most usually. But you have to factor in Handle sizes, weight, materials overall... You did help Schrade improve that scax a few years back... Just a thought...

[@mitch60609]

Don't put the BK 9 away without the the good old flaming carpet test. Yup long time sub . Good video as always. Thanks.

[@preparedmind101]

+Mitch Rivers I got nowhere to hang it

[@7Belial7]

Daryl has used almost only busses for all the seasons. (team gemini to be precise). Good serie of video btw, Would be nice to run few Busses, and see their performance.... sad that they are so pricy.

[@ignaciogarciafleury8540]

You've got to try the condor duku... I know you have a couple condors, but it is a great blade. Love chopocalypse man

[@preparedmind101]

We already reviewed it for the Gauntlet last year. That was a Jessi video. (Don't ask where she is...I have no clue. She disappeared)

[@ignaciogarciafleury8540]

PREPAREDMIND101 that was the mini duku I think. Try the big, 15inch duku. Great. Yeah man, bring her back

[@randyyeager]

Tram...Tram Tram...you left out your Tramontina!

[@preparedmind101]

+Randy Yeager Don't consider that a "chopper". You CAN, but that's a traditional machete. I have something else in mind...

[@randyyeager]

cool...lol...just messing about...

[@EliBenZion]

fun vid , keep on going 👍

[@NiceJrParena]

Hi Chris. Is there any chance you would be making a versus video between the cold steel jungle machete and the new schrade schmbs priscilla? That would be a really interesting comparison since both look to be the same in profile and in their dimensions. Both are light choppers and agile budget blades, perhaps competing for the same market niche? Thanks for your videos. I've found them to be both interesting and educating. Keep them coming and more power to you.

[@preparedmind101]

I think the SCHMBS would kill it against wood, since the Jungle is a standard machete. Always wanted that one, never got it. Got the All Terrain Chopper today.

[@NiceJrParena]

PREPAREDMIND101 Been doing some viewing on the jungle machete and saw an older vid where brother tac proclaimed it the winner on his large machete shootout, but only after taking back the win from the kershaw camp 18 with a cracked blade. He tested the priscilla on a newer vid and liked it a lot, same as you. Will have a lookout on your test of the all terrain chopper. Maybe in part 6 of this series? Thanks again.

[@cotiew]

Becky! I kept thinking she was Jessica... damn my memory.

[@brianwatson3705]

Couldn't resist could ya? I don't mind at all 👍😁👍

[@preparedmind101]

Resist what?

[@brianwatson3705]

more test ! more chops ! more awesome blades !

[@karlo7586]

try to track down a British billhook it's a farm tool for hedge laying

[@mordyfisher4269]

have you found anything yet that chops better then an axe?

[@preparedmind101]

Not touching that 3rd rail...

[@mordyfisher4269]

PREPAREDMIND101 ahhhhhhhhh because of those guys, i love axes but they ain't worth their weight when it comes to clearing brush or anything hanging or bouncy

[@mbm2355]

Bahahaha.. this is the correct answer. Although, talk to Mike.. he may tell you the Senegal could fill that role.

[@mordyfisher4269]

I have a two pound machete that's on par with a 2 pound hatchet so I was thinking a three or four pound machete could be on par with a three or four pound axe, i guess the main problem is that the long axe handle gives alot of leverage

[@mbm2355]

Yea, axes sink deep, plain and simple. A blade like the Senegal could come close, but they are two different tools for two different techniques.

[@viseshseernam39]

I considered the parabellum a heavy chopper not a saber sword

[@oxxnarrdflame8865]

What is it with big hunks of steel that is so appealing. I understand the James Earl Jones character from Conan. :-)

[@axlplayer14]

Have you ever checked out the Ontario kukri before? Pretty good value.

[@ianthorne9297]

pm101 have you tried the bark river Senegal jungle or an older french Senegal machete?

[@holdenphilbeck5771]

hey preparedmind101 where can I buy the best survival bag at

[@jstnmc2448]

Hey man, I was trying to wrap my BK7 with Wilson comfort wrap...not as simple as I thought it was going to be. Any suggestion son making a solid wrap?

[@preparedmind101]

Cut about 1/3 off the untapped end. Cut that tiny sliver off the tapered end that doesn't have adhesive on it. Put the end you cut at the top of the handle and hold it in place with your thumb. Stretch tight and slowly wrap the handle. Make sure you bought the thin stuff...not that thick wrap.

[@brianmccann666]

TWD seasons 1,2,3 was dominated by Gerber weapons.

[@Kukri05]

Chris, how do the Brush Demon compate to the SCHMBS "Pricilla"?

[@preparedmind101]

+Kukri05 SCHMBS has the best handle, weapon feel. Brush Demon kinda feels like a weapon too... Works great at Brush. They will probably be around the same price.

[@davidlarue2492]

on the parabellum does that wrap ever feel like it comes loose

[@preparedmind101]

+David Larue nope

[@sport21391]

Will you review the crkt mah-chete I fell like it would be a good knife for this big bag of blades.

[@preparedmind101]

+steven porter No. I've looked at it. And it just doesn't make sense to me.

[@Truett49]

You forgot the Jethro and Leroy.

[@preparedmind101]

+Truett49 Leroy will be in the last/next episode. I hate Jethro.

[@Truett49]

+PREPAREDMIND101 I have a Jethro, used it once and haven't touched it sense.

[@robbyspearman]

Make a review on the Tops M1 Midget

[@gunnerhusnian4375]

hey Chris hope your doing good! I was just wondering if u would be interested in selling your schf56 knife that schrade sent u and u had said u didn't want to review it. I'm interested in it and if I could find one for a little cheaper than the store price it would be awesome to review on my channel and to customize!

[@preparedmind101]

+coolkid survival I sent it to another channel to review

[@gunnerhusnian4375]

PREPAREDMIND101 oh ok.

[@ernestolaf]

Damnit! Why am I still requesting the TOPS Armageddon. I know you gave it to a fellow KZbinr that had his property vandalized, and which show a lot about your character. But for some reason, the Armageddon seams to merit some space in this chopping series.....and I have one so I am biased.

[@preparedmind101]

It was in BBOB 2

[@ernestolaf]

I know....I know it was. And I loved it...tears... I just put mine to plenty of wood processing that I would love to see it. Keep up these awesome vids. And I love BBOB

[@ProductionJMO]

It's not a phase mom, I really hate recurve

[@justuswhitmore8199]

ever going to check out the ZT Bowie?

[@preparedmind101]

If I do another one, it would probably be the Vakra. I don't normally like Kukri's at all, but THAT one is just sick.

[@justuswhitmore8199]

PREPAREDMIND101 I'd be more than willing to lend you my vakra if you'd like.

[@preparedmind101]

+Justus Whitmore If I did it, I'd want to keep it.

[@1976Raider]

If you got a BK9 today would you strip it?

[@preparedmind101]

+1976Raider Yes. I always strip traction type coating. Rough stuff. Smooth stuff I'll leave alone.

[@woochri1352]

BEEEECKYYYYY!!!!!! 🙌💪😂

[@ricwoz]

You need to go to what you call "the 3rd rail" and explain why anyone would ever use a 2lb 15" knife for chopping wood when you can carry a two handed ax for the same weight. Chopping Hardwood: I've chopped down some pretty large standing trees with a good axe almost as fast as my friend with the chainsaw working across the lot (he had to gas, prime, start, re-start, etc). Clearing Brush: In the jungle or thick brush a thin, flexible genuine South American style machete is the superior tool, you can swing it for hours because it's not too heavy, and they have 26" blades to cut lots of brush at once. I've cleared acres of Scotch Broom and chapparel and the 12" Blackie Collins machete was useless. The el-cheapo imported machete with the flexy blade was far superior. The mountain men of old who went in the north woods always took an axe. You can make a little lean-to with your zombie knife, you can make a trapper's cabin with a decent axe.

[@preparedmind101]

+ricwoz You axe people kill me. You just CANNOT HAVE FUN. It's like you all have an axe handle up your ass or something. Carry yourself over to Wranglerstars channel so you can be happy. I'm tired of explaining it.

[@jeffanders5538]

OK.

[@jonathanstokes8493]

Why did you reupload it

[@adamnitro3377]

Jonathan Stokes it's a different video

[@survivalmom1968]

Can u do something for women? You say the handle is thin. But how would it be for a woman.

[@preparedmind101]

+survivalmom1968 No clue. Every hand is different.

[@survivalmom1968]

+PREPAREDMIND101 can u do some reviews or some Examples for women. I know you are a guy channel my hubby likes it. I like it also. For example my hubby bought me a knife like his he loves his BK's. It was a bit big for my hand. If you could do some for women you would expand your viewership.

[@survivalmom1968]

+survivalmom1968 sorry i am upset that I can't get the gear that some can get because of the size of the grip. I was told because I am a woman I don't need it let the man do it. Well that's good and all but what if am by myself. I will adapt as usual. I do like your channel.

[@preparedmind101]

+survivalmom1968 What size glove do you wear?

[@preparedmind101]

+survivalmom1968 I planned something like that... But scheduling the PM101 women is short of impossible these days.

[@Eric_Schon]

OK Google Presley Hart......... Wow alright..... Damn I'm not Incognito !!!!. Delete history DELETE HISTORY!!!!!!!

[@preparedmind101]

+Eric Schon LMAO. Don't say I didn't warn you!
